How to identify previous view controller in navigation stack

by

You could use the UINavigationController‘s viewControllers property:

@property(nonatomic, copy) NSArray *viewControllers

Discussion: The root view controller is at index 0 in the array, the back view controller is at index n-2, and the top controller is at index n-1, where n is the number of items in the array.

You could use that to test whether the root view controller (the one at array index 0) is view controller A or B.
